Our Skyworld event is back to offer you the chance to look at the stars! This perennial favourite will be led by members of the Peterborough Astronomical Association (PAA), a group of amateur astronomers from Peterborough and the surrounding area. Following a presentation, you will have the opportunity to observe the setting up of a variety of different telescopes and then look skyward to view a diverse variety of astronomic objects including planets, star clusters, globular clusters, galaxies, double stars, and more. Learn about the equipment PAA members use and about the objects visible in the night sky. If the weather is rainy or too cloudy, registrants will be notified the event will be postponed to the rain date.
